Floss-Some
Now that we’ve got the awkwardness out of the way, it’s time to talk about everyone’s favorite hygiene task: flossing. I know it’s not the most exciting part of your dental routine, but trust me, it’s crucial for keeping those pearly whites in tip-top shape. Brushing alone isn’t enough to prevent cavities and gum disease, and according to dental hygienists, 90% of people aren’t flossing correctly (or at all).
So, if you’re not sure if you’re doing it right, ask your hygienist to show you how. It might seem like a pain at first, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be a flossing pro in no time. And hey, think of all the money you’ll save on dental bills by preventing cavities and gum disease. So, let’s all make a pact to floss our damn teeth, and keep those chompers healthy and happy.
